Our prediction for this League 1 match:
All eyes will be on Stadium MK when Milton Keynes Dons and Lincoln City face each other in the League One round 31. The Dons aim to build on back-to-back wins over Burton and Wycombe, with the team eyeing their third consecutive clean sheet. A man to watch in the home team will be Scott Twine, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late.
The Imps, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team losing to both Cambridge United and Burton Albion, while beating Plymouth. Lincoln City have been struggling at the back of late; therefore, we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling the Dons’ party at Stadium MK. You should bear in mind that MK Dons defeated Lincoln City 3-2 in the first half of the season.
Highlighted Player (Mo Eisa):
Born on the 12th of July, 1994, in Khartoum, Sudan, Mo Eisa is a Sudanese professional footballer who plays for Peterborough United in the third tier of English Football. The 6ft tall striker/ winger is a Pro Touch Soccer Academy product.

A prolific season with the Robins earned him the Supporters' Player Of The Year and the Players' Player Of The Year awards at the end of the season. For the 18/19 season, the 25-year-old joined Championship side Bristol for a brief stint before returning to League One with Peterborough for the following season on a four-year contract.
Highlighted Team (Lincoln):
Lincoln City are one of the oldest clubs competing in the League One as they were founded back in 1884. Lincoln City FC were established as an amateur association, but they turned professional in the 1891/1892 season.
Back then they played at John O’Gaunts stadium, but nowadays Sincil Bank is the club’s home ground. Sincil Bank was opened in 1895, holding up to 10,120 people. The club’s main colours are red, white and black, whilst the Imps wear green shirts and white shorts when playing on the road. Lincoln City and Mansfield Town are regarded as the club’s fiercest rivals, but the Limps had some sort of local rivalry with Peterborough United, Hull City and York City as well.
Albert Iremonger (42 years and 312 days) is the oldest footballer to have played for the club, whilst Shane Nicholson (16 years and 112 days) is the youngest one. Lincoln City recorded a thrilling 9-1 victory over then local rivals Sleaford in their first game.
